I am having a really hard time with menu planning because the one meal that I tried to make modified for Andruw while keeping ours the same, spaghetti, was a scary cross contamination waiting to happen. Separate pans, spatulas, tons of hand washing.. I am way too lazy for all that.
So far, I have read many recipes that will work and have tried a couple things. The first night I cooked we had grilled chicken (in a stainless pan), green beans, and pan fried potatoes. It was awesome, and honestly, it was a meal that we would usually have. Then there was last night. I thought that I would make some rice and gravy for dinner. Well, rice isn't as flavorful as some other things, and then when you use turkey rather than beef and cornstarch rather than flour, everything is just so different. It was fine with me, the kids loved it, and Trevor didn't even eat all his plate full. This isn't very normal for him.. he is usually an eater.
What will tonight bring? I don't know because it is going to have to be fast and easy. :)
